Blanche caused her own accident. She tried to run Jane over for drunkenly mocking her at a party. Blanche dragged herself out to the front of the car to stage the accident and blame Jane. Maybe it's good to remember that 1962 was before "Unsafe at Any Speed," by Ralph Nader, which opened the eyes of the public about automobile safety. It was definitely possible to get a spinal injury behind wheel.
